Some points regarding 'Points'. .


By Sehar Azhar.

University of Karachi is one of the largest institutes of Pakistan.It offers the most attractive opportunities such as courses and degree programs.Along with many appealing facilities provided by Campus ,transport facility is also one of its own kind.

A large number of students of UoK have no personal means of transport and travel by the University points.Students prefer travelling in points rather than public transports ,one reason of which are the reasonable charges of the University point service.These points provides pick and drop services.This transport service is provided all over the city.


In spite of so much 'hujoom' in the points ,students find it safe and affordable to use points rather than public or private transports.But there are issues regarding the service that should be resolved.
The points are very less in number as compared to the number of passengers using the service on daily basis.Students who get the opportunity of being seated are considered lucky.

This transport service is unavailable at the time of strikes and bad city conditions and due to their unavailability,students face problems.Sometimes there is a strike call by these 'points' ,this usually happens when they have issues with the administration. Every year increases their budget and announce new programs but no improvement can be witnessed even after announcements of new budgets for this service. If Administration  resolve these problems ,students can safely travel in these points as its one of the best facilities provided by the Campus.
